Happy Thanksgiving!

I love this time of year because we reflect on all of the blessings we've received throughout the year and we realize just how much we have to be thankful for.

I'm particularly thankful for my loving husband and my super sweet kids. My family makes me smile every day and I love them so much!

My sweet kids helped in the kitchen as we prepared our Thanksgiving meal. Rachel helped make the cornbread for the dressing.

Nicholas was excited to use the chopper on the onions but soon found that the odor was really strong so he devised a solution.

This boy just makes me laugh!

I found a simple way to spice up some plain yeast rolls. Check out this recipe from Sandra Lee. I actually didn't make the wreath. Instead I bought frozen yeast dough that had already risen and only needed to bake for about 15 minutes from frozen.

I love having the big traditional Thanksgiving meal even if it is only the four of us sitting down to enjoy it. It is so worth it!
